DMC - Picnic at the Peak & Membership Meeting - May 17

Postby danjmcs » Sat May 02, 2009 8:50 pm

The MadMen have put together an event for May 17th, Picnic at the Peak! Picacho Peak that is!
http://www.azparks.gov/Parks/PIPE/index.html

The DMC Board thought it would be a good event to also serve as our Annual Membership Meeting, so everyone please come on down to Picacho Peak for a nice picnic and we'll also have a little club business.

The park does have a $6 per Mini entrance fee, so bring a few dollars for that.

The DMC has reserved the "Cholla Ramada" for 10:30AM to 4PM.
Cholla Ramada: Four picnic tables & grills, water source. Wheelchair accessible. Electric (lighting and 110 volt outlets). Close proximity to parking, restrooms, hiking trails, and playground. Reservation fee $25.00
http://www.azparks.gov/Parks/PIPE/facilities.html

I'll also bring an EZUP Canopy in case we need one for more shade/seating area.

This will be a "pot luck" picnic. Bring your toys: frisbees, kites, horseshoes, etc or take a hike up the peak!

What should you bring: Finger foods, salads, chips, casseroles, desserts. Please RSVP so we can keep track.

May temps on average show: High 94

I will actually be able to go to this meeting for the first time in 3 years. Thanks for making it a Sunday.
:D

Now I can give a treasurer's report without having to phone it in.

That bird should be stuffed, roasted and served to the masses!

That was supposed to be top secret, suspected by the regular attendees, unknown by others. Now see what happened. You and that bird spoiled it and tons of people are gonna show up for this event and ruin my chances of winning anything! AGGHHHHHHH.

At this point I am going to say I am a possible attendee. I have family in town that day and if they don't mind coming with I will be there.


For my pot luck dish, I am going to bring some nice Classic honey cornbread. Trust me.... you don't want to miss that....

The Michel(l)es (delys and MINImama) will be missing this event. We had already planned a much-needed and well-deserved MINI vacation this weekend. \:D/ :bounce:

Everyone have a safe trip down to Picacho Peak and back to the Valley :drive

I'm planning on attending, and for my potluck, I'll be bringing a main dish of orzo, grilled vegetables & shrimp AND, because I couldn't decide between the two, vanilla and coconut cupcakes (a little philosophy left over from my retail therapy days).

Also, I don't know what the plan is regarding dishes, but I have some dinnerware sets that are made of hard plastic. Each set has a plate, bowl, cup, knife, fork & spoon and I have enough for up to 20 people. I would be happy to bring them, and it would be 'greener' than using paper plates.

p.s. I'll also be bringing a Sharpie for any cast signing opportunities.....Dan
